Tennis and club holidays – they're a perfect match. That's why I'm so pleased to introduce TennisTraveller that are especially well-suited for tennis players. And for good reason, as you'll see in the club descriptions. As you'd expect from a club, the holiday program includes not only tennis, but also sports on land, on, and under the water. I recently had the pleasure of you to TUI MAGIC LIFE, a truly wonderful tennis holiday provider. We've featured four TUI MAGIC LIFE clubs on interviewing Adrian Laege, who is responsible for racket sports at TUI MAGIC LIFE . In the interview, you'll learn why a tennis holiday at one of the clubs is definitely worthwhile, regardless of your skill level or age. Adrian knows his stuff, as he's a passionate tennis player and coach himself, and is also responsible for selecting coaches for the clubs. He also reveals that padel and pickleball are currently gaining popularity at TUI MAGIC LIFE clubs. Get excited and let yourself be whisked away into the world of tennis club holidays with TUI MAGIC LIFE - have lots of fun!

Sometimes things don't go as planned… and end up being so much better than expected. To be honest, absolutely wonderful! That sums up my 10 days with Patricio Travel at the International Wilson Open 2026 at the Ali Bey Club Manavgat, including a short trip to the Ali Bey Resort Sorgun. Instead of the planned MT1000 ITF senior tournament, I played an open tournament with fantastic singles and mixed doubles matches. Despite some unpredictable weather, the tournament organization was flawless and unfussy, and the international atmosphere was fantastic. All this at the World Class Racket Center with 59 tennis courts and a resort hotel that lacked (almost) nothing. Join me for a glimpse into my tennis tournament week in Turkey!

His son, Jamie Mackenzie, has been making waves as a young professional tennis player for some time now and is considered one of Germany's best up-and-coming talents on the international tennis tour. Father Justin Mackenzie not only works as a coach for TC Rheinstadion Düsseldorf, but also manages and organizes his son's activities. Even before his son's career took off, Jamie was TennisTraveller , working in various capacities around the world. Tennis entrepreneur and NRW International tournament organizer Marc Raffel, who also organizes various tennis camps both domestically and internationally throughout the year and is a long-standing partner, had a long conversation with Jamie. They talked about New Zealand tennis, his son, his goals, and, of course, the current state and future of German tennis. Two true TennisTraveller in conversation!
Sometimes there are rackets where you know exactly what they're all about after just a few rallies. The HEAD Boom MP falls squarely into this category. Plenty of power, plenty of comfort – and that certain "easy playing" feel that immediately invites you to just start playing. The 2026 version of the Boom MP gets an update. The big question: Will it remain the familiar "fun racket" or will it now also appeal to more ambitious players? I received it from our partner Tennis Warehouse Europe for testing, played with it extensively in Mallorca during my preseason training, and summarized my experiences in the style of a classic playtest. Another round of "TRIPLE T - TennisTraveller tests".
